Phenomenal food service and atmosphere. I had the Brisket with baked beans and Mac and cheese. Absolutely delicious!! My sister had Smoked Chicken, potato salad, collard greens and Mac and cheese. She also said her food was delicious!! We will definitely be back! The staff was very nice and welcoming!! Love this little place!

Such a GREAT TREASURE in the tiny town of Alford. Friendly service and delicious BBQ— Everything I have tried has been wonderful! You can’t go wrong here. I could eat that coleslaw everyday and never get tired of it— it’s amazing! And all of the BBQ sauces are homemade, and they’re the BEST I’ve ever tried!

OMG! We just came into town for two days and I was looking for a DG! This place popped up and we love a good barbecue so we were like " let's check it out! " OMG it is marvelous! From the wonderful staff to the delicious meal this is a place you have to check out. Even the decor is spot on. We had pulled pork and brisket, God cooked to perfection!! Also tried a couple of side dishes the coleslaw and baked beans ( wonderful gal who served us suggested them) Perfect!!! A must try. The barbecue sauce is homemade, two different. They're both top notch. And the price for everything was great! We will definitely stop on our way next time. The only disappointing thing is that we were so stuffed we got home and forgot we didn't grab any blackberry cobbler! :-(

I had the Ginormous Tater with pulled pork. Meat was perfectly smoked! Yum! I am a big eater but could not finish even half of it! You can't go wrong with a stop here! I sat outside on the 'porch'! Look for the smoking grill on the side of the road.

Everytime we are in the area of this place we stop by here and eat. The owner is from Dayton TN, he is really nice and every body that works here is super friendly and the food is always great. You get your money's worth I promise you that. I would highly recommend trying this place if you love BBQ and you are ever in the area. They will not disappoint you with the quality of the food and with the flavor.

We recently stopped by Michael D's BBQ, it was an absolute delight. The brisket was melt-in-your-mouth perfect, and the ribs and smoked pork had just the right amount of smoke. The friendly, warm, and kind staff made us feel like we were old friends stopping by for a bite. It is a north Florida stop not to be missed. I highly recommend Michael D's BBQ to anyone looking for delicious, authentic barbecue in a friendly and welcoming atmosphere.

The food is amazing and the servings are big. They are so quick with your order and the owner and help always greet you with a smile. Inside and outside seating, both at a minimum and all you have to do is follow your nose. We will continue to drop in whenever we are out and hungry.

The BEST!! Noon on Saturday. We had a full slab of ribs, taters, greens, and cabbage. All of it was stupendous!!! Both of the sauces for the ribs are outstanding. The greens weren’t flaming spicy hot, and had a really nice flavor. The cabbage was awesome and not over cooked! Everything was perfectly seasoned, and I loved that the LEAN and MEATY ribs and the potatoes tasted very freshly cooked (not yesterday’s food). Michael and his staff are very friendly and attentive, the place is clean inside and out. I’m so happy we stumbled upon this roadside barbecue stand. Such a quirky and cute place. Only three tables so get here early or sit at the bar. Eat here!!!
